Another John Carpenter classic. No blue screens just plywood and hard work.

I see these pics and it is movie magic. The guys precariously perched on the wooden beams to get the perfect shot.

Alien. The actual prop in this scene was restored some years ago. It is huge.

A great movie visually, but very weird (the water buffalo scene is awful) story wise. The endless dramas in making it are well documented. Its still one of the great Vietnam themed war movies made. The effort to keep building sets etc in a jungle only to see them destroyed by cyclones was persistence personified.

You need to read the source novel (Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad). It helps fill in some of the gaps that exist in the script.

Due to the bravery of the cameraman, shots like this were made. Not to forget it is the late great R Lee Ermey.
